Fabergé has announced its collaboration with Warner Bros Discovery Global Consumer Products (WBDGCP) and has launched ‘Chapter One: Dragon’, its latest high jewellery collection inspired by the HBO original series Game of Thrones, in celebration of the forthcoming Lunar New Year, ‘Year of the Dragon’.
Continuing its collaboration with WBDGCP, the Fabergé x Game of Thrones High Jewellery collection has been developed in partnership with Michele Clapton, the Emmy and BAFTA winning costume designer for Game of Thrones.
These high jewellery creations feature six designs, with each creation limited to just 10 collectible pieces.
This presence of red, which is also symbolic of “Daenerys’ fiery spirit”, has been brought into the collection via the use of deep red rubies, responsibly mined from Gemfields’ Montepuez mine in Mozambique.
These “rare” and “precious” gemstones are paired with white gold, rose gold, diamonds and black rhodium.
The Dragon is the fifth animal in the 12-year cycle of the Chinese zodiac. In Chinese culture, these mythical creatures are “in a class of their own, regarded as the givers of abundance and longevity”. Dragons hold a unique place in the Chinese Zodiac; of all the animals present, only dragons are mythical and occupy a “special seat” in Chinese folklore.
The Fabergé x Game of Thrones Dragon high jewellery collection is available to purchase at selected Fabergé boutiques.
Clapton said: “The collection was inspired by the strength and vulnerability of Daenerys and her relationship with her dragons, to try and express this complex woman and her journey from orphaned exile to conquering monarch and her ongoing quest for the Iron Throne.”
